{There is magic embedded in all Palantíri and Aragorn, in other circumstances, would not be comfortable with it. However Maglor has left him a gift and he intends to use it. It is clear the Elf put much thought into this system of communication.}

Lord Maglor... {His voice will echo over the Shards and they will burn with a bright, pure light.} ...has left us a means of communication outside of the Lockets. We should not let it gather dust.

What plans have you for the upcoming months?

{OOC: I believe only those who possess the Shards Maglor gave out will be able to receive this message. Palantíri are funny that way.

Those are able to see this message are: Javik, Alice, Aubri, Muscovy, Nerdanel, Waver, Kaldur and Rin.}

So they say.

[He doesn't waste a lot of time worrying about what other species say they can and can't feel.]

[rangerandking]

But it is not returned by your race? {There is something achingly sad about that.}

[notavirtue]

We do not mate with other species.

[Well... normally they didn't. Given the fact that he was born and raised in war, any prothean that took the rare alien mate was long gone, their thoughts and feelings lost to time. The concept was foreign to him.]

[rangerandking]

It is hard for me to imagine such circumstances, but they must serve your race well.

{Javik exists, after all.}

I cannot help but love the one I wish to wed.

[notavirtue]

You do not need my permission.

[Which might have been a nicer way of saying he didn't really care. They'd gotten off topic, though, and Javik begrudgingly realized that was his fault.]

Regardless, it is unfortunate you have lost one of your kin. Maglor was known to many here.

[rangerandking]

I need no one's permission except hers.

{Those words are said with a hint of amusement.}

For good reason. I do not wish to let the bonds he forged go to waste.

[notavirtue]

Then I will remember this shard, and use it when necessary. He and I... are not from the same world, as you know, but we both arrived here on the same day.

[rangerandking]

I ask no more of you.

{Emotions may not be something prized by Javik, yet Aragorn senses something behind his words.}

He had a way about him of connecting with those he spoke to no matter their past.

[notavirtue]

[He can't argue with that. They'd set out with three others after arriving here, and while there was friction in the group, Maglor had bound them.]

He gave too much. [Compliments were never far from criticisms, in his mind.] Despite his absence, we will carry on. I have nothing else to say on the matter.
